I seem to have hit a little wall. I have taken 3 Manhattan Prep tests - I noticed I was able to knock down all the RC and SC questions in the 700-800 range quite easily and effectively but CR I seem to be struggling with.
Here was the spread for 700-800 CR questions: Questions Correct Wrong Accuracy Time Correct Time Incorrect 12 4 7 33% 2:11 2:25
Because of this my verbal score was a low 37 - although I know if I can fix this then I can possibly gun for the 40+ mark.
I am tentatively thinking of appearing for my first GMAT in exactly 2 months. How do I increase my accuracy on CR questions in 2 months time?
Mind you I have gone through the OG questions quite often so now I practically know the answers even before I attempt the question - so I have now resorted to the LSAT problems - which I find are more challenging and quite a lot more in number.

The best and the most effective way to improve CR is by practising a lot and by identifying your pain areas.
You need to drill down deep in the type of CR questions:
CR: There might be certain types of questions that are troubling you. May be Assumption, may be conclusion, inference etc. You need to find that out and then practice them
You can follow the same exercise for the SC and the Rc sections if you feel the need.
SC: The questions test various concepts such as S-V agreement, modifiers, parallelism etc. Find out what troubles you. RC: This again can be drilled down into different types of questions and also different topics. See what questions and topics trouble you the most and then practice accordingly.
